Originally posted by Dr. BrainIt's 2:30 a.m. Normally I am asleep at this hour, but I've been up writing. I finished for the night but my wife still isn't home from work and I can't sleep without her. This is probably why I'm so cranky. Nice to see you back, by the way.
Bennett,should you not be sleeping?!What time is it there?

Methinks she doth protest too much. Like you were going to disabuse Omnislash of the notion that you had written that essay had somone not posted something about it. Most of your substantive posts are just cut and pasted from the web. Ah well, I guess it doesn't really matter.
What ever next.You are at the dregs.
Cognito?
Originally posted by missleadYes. To the uneducated mind this might seem plausible but is in fact a load of crap (can I say that).
Preposterous, right?
Yes there were female - orientated societies (still are in places).
It is wishful thinking that they were peaceful.
The pighead male barbarian aryans also had female deities, so I don't know where that's all from.
Most of the male-dominated aspect of religion has come from Judaism via Christianity.
The manipulating of archaeological/historical facts for feminist propaganda purposes is shameful.
Originally posted by UncleAdamIs a necessary criteria for a post being worthwile that UncleAdam understands it? If so I think we should get rid of a lot of posts. Moderators, stand ready! We're going to take out 2/3 of "General", evidently all of "Chess", all of "Posers and Puzzles", and I would recommend toning down "Announcements". Further, the following people (in no particular order) are to be banned for saying things that Adam cannot comprehend: misslead, bbarr, Omnislash, StarValleyWy, Acolyte, legionnaire, rwingett, genius, royalchicken, kirksey957, Rhymester, Vaknso, etc. Also, I'm afraid Russ and Chrismo shall have to leave. All of us are guilty of confusing Adam.
Please Misslead I'm begging you, dont talk in riddles, I was never very good at them.
I know it has something to do with the war, and to bring our troops back but thats all I understand.

All I did was ask what it meant, I dont whant her to leave and I never said I did but people are acting like I did something horrible,
I dont see where asking someone something is ignorant.
btw - why would I delete this, I might not like it but I'm not gonna delete it

Originally posted by royalchickenhmmm...interesting comment. although, you are implying that just because adam is a moderator, he will delete that post, just because it is about him! i don't think he will do that, i have spent many hours the last couple days just reading posts in the forums (thats why i haven't been playing my games much)...i don't think he will delete the post just because it is talking bad about him (although, someone else might). Even if he was going to delete that post, I think now there is a greater chance that he won't (because of this post)..unless he figures out i'm using triple-reversed phycology 🙂

EDIT: by the way, are you about ready for our next game 🙂?
Originally posted by UncleAdamDidn't mean that. I just mean that when one doesn't understand something, one needn't belittle it. Sorry-got carried away.

Originally posted by VargI would argue that traditional Confucianism has played a significant role in the solidification of male-dominated gender roles for much of Asia, lest we forget a major fraction of the world's population.
